Midland Taps Dennis Quaid as “Mr Lonely”

"I have nobody to call my own"

Acclaimed actor and singer/songwriter Dennis Quaid joins Grammy-nominated trio MIDLAND for what could be described as his most intriguing role to date – “Mr Lonely.”

Starring in the chart-topping Texans music video, it highlights their sense of humor and effortless vintage country style. “Mr. Lonely” marks the first release off the bands highly-anticipated second album (Big Machine Records).

Premiering the video exclusively with YouTube this afternoon, the band took time from their headlining tour to chat along with fans as they experienced the cinematic endeavor together for the first time.

Watch "Mr Lonely":

Midland singer Mark Wystrach, guitarist Jess Carson and bassist Duddy wrote “Mr. Lonely” with esteemed hitmakers Shane McAnally and Josh Osborne (with these names attached to it, the song has hit written all over it.)

The song has quickly gained a following and was touted as most added at Country radio upon release.

Midland has spent the last two years on the road performing hits like their Gold-certified No. 1 “Drinkin' Problem" and fan favorites such as "Electric Rodeo" and "Gator Boys.”

The trio has earned a reputation as a wildly satisfying live act, picking up tour dates with Tim McGraw and Faith Hill, Little Big Town, and Thomas Rhett, in addition to headlining their ELECTRIC RODEO TOUR. They are set to make their Australian debut in September when the guys hit our shores as part of the first Country 2 Country Australia Festival – and we can’t wait!
